Join Me For A Tour Of My Off Grid Tiny House

I finally did a Tour Of My Off Grid Tiny House. After several requests on YouTube to do a tiny house tour. I kept putting it off till I could clean up my house. To get it done I decided to set a deadline and shoot the video tour of my tiny house whether it was clean or not. Well, It is not perfectly clean but I’m a man and a messy one at that. 

I realized that I forgot to show the loft. Also, I didn’t talk about the walls. I’ll answer some of the things here. If I get enough questions I will do a Q&A Video on my tiny house.

Endless Match Unboxing: A Great Cheap Survival Tool You Need

Endless Match Unboxing: A Great Cheap Survival Tool You Need

I unbox the Endless Match I bought from Wish. With shipping, this great survival tool set me back three bucks. You are supposed to fill it with lighter fluid before use. Which I didn’t know because it does not come with instructions. In my case, I could smell lighter fluid in it. So the two times I light it didn’t damage it. Using it is simple. I figured it out in a few seconds.

It has a tiny ferrocerium rod on the side. The match has a tiny striker and wick on one end. You just strike it till the wick catches. The flame that this little match puts off is pretty impressive. Using it to start a fire would be no problem.

The Endless Match claims to be waterproof as well. I have not tested that yet but it screws in tightly with a gasket. This also hopefully retains the lighter fluid as well. The last thing I want is lighter fluid leaking out my endless match all over my pack or pocket. I don’t want to become the endless match myself.

Even though it is made to be carried on a keychain I would rather throw it in a pack or pocket. The tiny keyring to attach to a keychain is very flimsy looking. I am rough on Key ring EDC items and most don’t last. Either they break, get lost from poor retention or damage my pants. I had to stop wearing P38 can opener because it kept shredding my pockets.

Why The Leatherman Warranty Rocks! Free Replacements

The amazing Leatherman Warranty has cemented me as a customer for life. A while back I broke the Flathead screwdriver bit on my Leatherman Wave. It broke in the prevention of an explosion. A small one anyway.  I was trying to unscrew a rusty screw on my kerosene heater. Which was unusable because I dropped a mini bic lighter deep inside it. I flicked my bic too hard and it flew inside.

First I grabbed my Leatherman Wave Multi-Tool  to unscrew the heater case. I got the heater used and it was a bit rusty. Not that I’m complaining. It was free and could kick out some heat. The leatherman was no match against this screw, though. The tip if the screwdriver snapped off. I was pretty furious.

I then proceeded to break at least one more screwdriver before finally getting it off.
